Jeremy Renner's New Daughter: What Did They Name Her?
by Shannon Keirnan“Avengers” star Jeremy Renner welcomed his first child to the world on Thursday-- a daughter!
The 42-year-old, who also starred notably in “The Hurt Locker” and “The Bourne Legacy,” is “beyond thrilled,” according to his rep.
The mother, 22-year-old Canadian model Sonni Pacheco, is also thrilled, and said to be “doing great" along with her newborn.
So what did they name their new 7 pound daughter? Ava Berlin Renner!
Renner was “ultra secretive” about the pregnancy, according to a friend, but “will make a great dad!”
Originally there was speculation that Renner and Pacheco had broken up before news of the pregnancy.
“They used to date but it wasn’t serious,” said a source in January, and that while Renner was trying to conceal the fact, “she has been going on about her life and not hiding it.”
However Renner’s reps have stepped in and clarified that he and the model are still together, and that break-up rumors were false.
“I want my personal life to be personal,” the rugged actor has said in the past, which would explain why the big announcement never came.
The news of the baby on the way was only confirmed when Renner was overheard at the Golden Globe Awards telling Eva Longoria that he was planning to reunite with Pacheco for the birth and “fly in when her water breaks.”
What do you think of the pretty (and geographically specific) name of Ava Berlin?
Congratulations to the couple on the birth of their little one!
